The last five PowerBall draws reveal a pattern of fluctuation between high-value numbers and isolated clusters in the mid-20s to 30s.
PowerBall predictions: Friday, 11 July 2025
Tuesday’s draw saw a mix dominated by upper-30s and 40s (14, 19, 37, 44, 48), hinting at a trend away from the lower range.
This follows Friday’s draw on 4 July where 15, 16, 22, 30 and 32 suggested a brief return to the mid-zone groupings that were dominant in late June.
Over the past two weeks, numbers in the 30s have appeared with the most frequency, especially 30 and 32, both drawn more than once.
PowerBall bonus numbers also seem to be stabilising in the 08 to 19 range, with 17 coming up twice in recent draws.
In PowerBall Plus, the dominant trend has been tight, symmetrical spreads—combinations like 05, 09, 16, 20, 32 continue to show how the Plus game leans toward balance rather than extremes.
While the main draw occasionally swings toward the high end, Plus results consistently include at least one number under 10, paired with a mid-30 or low-40 number to round things out.
Based on these recent trends, the prediction for tonight’s PowerBall draw is:
- 13, 26, 33, 40, 45 PowerBall: 16
For PowerBall Plus, our prediction is:
- 03, 12, 18, 30, 37 PowerBall: 06
PowerBall jackpot up for grabs tonight
For Friday, 11 July 2025, the PowerBall jackpot has reached R65 million, the highest it’s been in over a month.
This follows six consecutive rollovers in the main draw, further fuelling interest and ticket sales. With no winners in the top tier once again on Tuesday, the prize pot continues to swell, drawing widespread attention.
Meanwhile, the PowerBall Plus jackpot is sitting at R6 million, after consistent prize resets and payouts in the lower tiers. While the Plus draw hasn’t produced a jackpot winner in over a week, it continues to reward players handsomely at the Match 4 and Match 3 levels.
PowerBall jackpot trends – Here’s a weekly analysis
The payout structure across the past five PowerBall draws reveals a consistent theme: near-hits are becoming the norm, and full jackpots remain elusive. On 8 July, although no player hit the jackpot, one lucky winner matched five numbers and took home nearly R400,000, while 21 players matched four numbers plus the PowerBall to earn just under R12,000 each.
This reflects a broader trend: high engagement with very few players cracking the top tier, but substantial payouts in the Match 5 and Match 4+PB brackets.
On the Plus side, the pattern is more modest but consistent. While there have been no jackpot wins, the payout pool is actively distributed across the middle tiers.
Notably, on 8 July, 221 players matched four numbers plus the PowerBall, each winning over R12,000, a sharp increase from prior weeks. This spike may signal broader player reach or a higher match rate in the current number pool.
The number 32 has become a notable repeater across both draws, appearing on three separate occasions between 27 June and 8 July. PowerBall bonus numbers like 17 and 10 have also appeared more than once, suggesting players should consider these in their selection pools. In both draws, mid-range numbers (16–36) dominate, while low single-digits remain less frequent.
The takeaway is clear: the top prize remains hard to catch, but there’s consistent value in second and third-tier brackets, especially in the Plus game.
